Being prefect had never been a goal of his. He was as surprised as anyone when the badge came in the post. His parents were surprisingly proud, so that was a plus. They were just happy that he had been elevated above the mudbloods he was force to share a dormitory with or some shit like that. Whatever. He was just happy he got to use the groovy bathroom.

It was his night to patrol and he found himself even less enthused than usual. But hey, it was an excuse to roam the halls after hours and he sort of liked the quiet.

He stopped walking at the noise. It would be stupid to assume that this was just one of the castle's many natural sounds, but he really wanted to. It was easier than having to scold someone. It was his job though. Ugggh. He turned around and strolled toward the creaking hinge.
